They keep saying their strategy will take several years to implement, I accept this and realise that in the future we may be able to hold onto players much easier if we manage to achieve success without burning cash to get there. There's next to no point in overspending until you're in the s*** to get to Europe, only to fall out of it for several years and potentially enter relegation battles. Be frugal, spend the money wisely but at all times keep a core of good players in the side and try the utmost to create a core which is reasonably stable for three-four years.

I fully expect to get slayed and slated here for being a w***** apologist and maybe I'm wrong, maybe all they care about is lining their pockets and f***ing us over but you can argue it both ways. The haters have a more aggressive way of talking about it but we'll not know who's right until MA's ownership comes to an end.

Can see no reason why not  :shifty:



Hold on is it drinks then a game again!>?  :yikes: :kasper:

Actually, on that note whatever position Slim plays for NOFC, make sure he can take alot of shots, nearly broke my hand with one in warmup,  I took some shots of Steve Bowey (ex Bristol City, I think he took their set pieces) and Slims had far more venom in them.  Don't think I've experienced such a powerful strike before.

No, its:

Drinks
Playing a game
Watching the match
Drinks again.

:pow:

(I suppose the first lot of drinks will be optional for some people if they can't get down until Sat morning or would rather not be under the influence during the game)

If you can let me know how you plan to get down to Liverpool and if you'll need accommodation and for which nights.

I'd say about 7 or 8, maybe more. About 5 in my room if someone doesn't mind top n tailing with me. Also have a lounge that could accommodate a few and a big back garden that you would be able to camp in. I'd have to clear it with housemates like but it should be fine.

It will probably go to general sale but you might need to be quick if we have taken a reduced allocation.
